EC IN | Last year was the first year we put thio in our side-dress. Prior to that 2gal/ac of thio only with planter with our starter blend. I did a 2% blend this year on a strip trial and knocked some yields out of the park compared to my check strips(20bu/ac on over 80ac). We have encirca imagery and could easily see the strips in most of the trial.
Fun thing is dad decided to spray fungicide right through the middle of my trial after finishing some beans and had some in the tank. Luckily we were able to isolate it and get to compare it combined with and without the additional sulfur. We found that it was a wash, either fungicide, or sulfur, made the yield bump. Both together didn't result in any gains. This was on Pioneer 1197AM.
I plan on adding additional strips and rates this year, maybe a 4% and possibly 6% blends if I can find a field with enough room and time to do it right. | |

Thiosulfate at planting or sidedress time?
